I really like the shade of gray you used on your panel. What paint did you use?

Thanks,

Dave

Rustoleum Hard Hat, "Dark Machine Grey" in the rattle can. Not bullet-proof, but it's holding up well and I still like the color. I used Light Machine Grey in the baggage compartments. I'd do it again the same way.

Larry - I couldn't find a graphic of your paint scheme on your website. Do you have it up yet, or are you waiting for the baby to come out of the paint shop? BTW, you really made the upper gear intersection fairings sound easy!

I have my pencil doodlings of the scheme on my desk, but haven't scanned them in yet. It's on my list. Stay tuned!

I am on my way to Sydney, Melbourne and points west if time permits. I am building an RV 8 and would love to hook up with some one down under who is doing the same or a Vans design.
If any one interested in meeting us-wife - please send info.
Thanks,

Note that everything on the panel is connected to the rest of the electrical system by just wires. So I put in a big loop of extra wire so the whole panel can be dropped and rotated forward. This way I can get to the back side of everything on the panel and everything on the bulkhead behind it (without laying on my back and working upside down).
